=== JPA 2.0 Features ===

+

=== JPA 2.0 Enhancements ===

−

EclipseLink 2.0 will deliver the reference implementation of JPA 2.0 (JSR 317). This release of EclipseLink introduces some of the new functionality defined in the drafts of the JPA 2.0 specification.

+

The EclipseLink team continues to enhance the JPA support with development of the JPA 2.0 (JSR 317) Reference Implementation as the primary target. While the majority of the new features for JPA 2.0 are planned for the EclipseLink 2.0 release some new capabilities have been added to this release.

+

+

These include:

+

* Undirectional 1:M Mapping: You can now have a 1:M mapping without requiring the M:1 mapping pointing back from target entity nor do you require a separate join table to hold the associations.

+

* TABLE_PER_CLASS Inheritance has been added giving greater flexibility in how your relational tables associate with the classes in a hierarchy.

+

+

=== SDO 2.1.1 and Data Access Service ===

+

+

This release of EclipseLink includes an implementation of SDO 2.1.1 (JSR 235). This implementation conforms to the final draft and is being included with the final draft as the reference implementation.

+

+

SDO developers wishing to leverage existing POJO models, including JPA entities, can use the included Data Access support to wrap either static or dynamic data objects leveraging MOXy mappings (JAXB annotations or native XML metadata).
